Dominic Weilminster and John Yonushewski elected to RNL’s board of directors

RNL has announced the election of Dominic Weilminster, AIA, senior associate, and John Yonushewski, FAIA, chief operating officer, to the firm’s board of directors.

“The election of Dominic and John reflects the firm’s evolution,” Joshua Gould, AIA, Chairman and CEO of RNL, said. “We remain ever-focused on client satisfaction through exemplary, innovative, and collaborative design but RNL’s employee-shareholders understand that maintaining our edge requires a fresh and agile approach.

Dominic widens the perspective, providing clients with cutting-edge design solutions, while John’s experience and business acumen ensure our clients’ projects succeed from a budget and schedule standpoint. It’s exciting to see the momentum created, within the firm, by the board’s new make-up. I think RNL employees see an opportunity to use their skills and talents, along with their experience, to bolster the value of our work, to help steer the firm’s course and, ultimately, to design projects that strengthen communities.”

He has accrued numerous design awards and has been published in a variety of national industry publications. Yonushewski has a broad range of architectural, construction and development experience, specializing in architect-led, single source project-delivery on a wide range of commercial, residential and adaptive reuse projects.

Throughout his career, he has participated in and overseen more than $280 million in design and construction projects.

It’s no accident that the word “Highline” is in this project’s name. The goal is for the building to be a kind of gateway into the larger redevelopment of the surrounding neighborhood to resemble New York’s City’s trendy downtown Meatpacking District, through which runs a portion the High Line elevated park.
